Can't find a training course on a date that suits you? Register your interest with Save Me a Place and we'll arrange training around demand, in line with your licence renewal.
Can't find a training course on a date that suits you? Let us know you're interested, and we'll work on making it happen.
At The Security Tutor, we understand that finding the right training course isn't always straightforward.
Whether you're a Door Supervisor looking to complete your mandatory SIA refresher training, a Close Protection Operative preparing to renew your licence, or a security professional looking to develop additional skills, finding a course is often only half the challenge.
Finding one that fits around your work, family and other commitments can be even harder.
You might find a course that's exactly what you're looking for, only to discover it's being delivered on dates when you're working. Or perhaps you'd like to attend a particular qualification, but there aren't any upcoming courses advertised in your area.
We understand the frustration.
And we believe there's a better way.
Introducing Save Me a Place, a simple way to register your interest in one of our training courses without having to commit to a date that doesn't suit you.
You Tell Us What You Want to Study. We'll Work on Making It Happen.
Traditionally, training providers advertise a course, publish the dates and wait for enough learners to book.
But what happens when the advertised dates don't work for you?
You either rearrange your commitments, lose valuable working hours or wait until another course becomes available.
We decided to approach things differently.
With our Save Me a Place service, you can tell us which training course you're interested in attending, even when there isn't a suitable date currently advertised.
We'll register your interest and keep track of other learners who want to complete the same qualification.
Once we have enough interested learners to make the course viable, we'll contact you to discuss suitable dates and arrange a course that works for the group.
It's that simple.
No more constantly checking websites to see whether new dates have been added.
No more wondering whether a course will become available.
And no need to commit to an unsuitable date simply because it's the only option on offer.
You register your interest. We bring the learners together. Then we arrange the training.
How Does Save Me a Place Work?
We've kept the process straightforward because booking professional training shouldn't be complicated.
Step 1: Find your course
Browse the training courses available through The Security Tutor and choose the qualification you're interested in completing.
Whether that's SIA refresher training, First Aid, Close Protection or another professional development course, simply select the training you're looking for.
Step 2: Register your interest
Complete our Save Me a Place enquiry form.
Let us know which course you'd like to attend and when your current licence expires, so we can plan around your renewal.
You don't need to select a confirmed course date at this stage.
You're simply telling us that you'd like to attend when a suitable course becomes available.
Step 3: We bring the learners together
Once we've received your enquiry, we'll register your interest alongside other learners looking to complete the same course.
As interest grows, we'll assess when and where it would be practical to arrange the training.
Step 4: We get in touch
When we have enough interested learners, we'll contact you by email to discuss potential course dates.
We'll look at the group's availability and work towards identifying a suitable date and venue.
Step 5: Confirm your place
Once a course date has been agreed and formally scheduled, we'll provide the full joining details and information on how to confirm your booking.
From registering your interest to attending your course, we'll keep the process as straightforward as possible.
Built Around the People Who Work in the Industry
The private security industry doesn't operate Monday to Friday, nine to five.
Security Officers, Door Supervisors, Close Protection Operatives and Event Security personnel often work irregular hours, nights, weekends and rotating shift patterns.
We recognise that attending training can mean taking unpaid leave, rearranging shifts or sacrificing valuable time off.
That's why our Save Me a Place service isn't simply about filling classrooms.
It's about understanding when people are available and making training more accessible.
When we have sufficient interest in a particular course, we can explore weekday, evening or weekend delivery, subject to the qualification requirements and the availability of suitable instructors and venues.
Our aim is to make attending training fit more comfortably around your existing commitments.
Because professional development shouldn't be unnecessarily difficult to access.
What Courses Can I Register My Interest In?
Our Save Me a Place service is designed to support interest across our training portfolio, including:
- Door Supervisor Refresher Training: for existing licence holders preparing for renewal.
- Close Protection Refresher Training: for qualified Close Protection Operatives.
- Security Guard Refresher Training: for eligible Security Guard licence holders.
- First Aid at Work and Emergency First Aid at Work: essential first aid skills and recognised certification.
- Close Protection Training: for those looking to enter the close protection sector.
- Conflict Management and Physical Intervention Training: developing essential knowledge and practical workplace skills.
- Spectator Safety Qualifications: for those working or seeking work in the events and spectator safety industry.
Availability will depend on learner demand, qualification requirements and our delivery arrangements.
If the course you're looking for isn't listed, you can still contact us to discuss your training needs.
Why Should Your Training Provider Choose All the Dates?
Think about it.
If eight or ten people in the same area are interested in completing a particular qualification, but none of them can attend the dates currently being advertised, surely it makes sense to find out when those people can attend.
That's the thinking behind Save Me a Place.
Rather than expecting every learner to fit around an existing course calendar, we're giving learners a voice in helping to shape future course availability.
Of course, we still need to meet awarding organisation requirements, maintain the necessary Guided Learning Hours and ensure that every course is delivered to the appropriate standards.
Those requirements will never be compromised.
But wherever flexibility is possible, we believe it should be offered.
Quality training, delivered professionally, at dates that work for the people attending.
No Obligation. Just Let Us Know You're Interested.
One of the biggest advantages of Save Me a Place is that registering your interest isn't the same as making a confirmed course booking.
You're not committing to a particular date, and you're not reserving a guaranteed place on a scheduled course.
You're simply letting us know that you would like to attend when suitable arrangements become available.
There's no charge to register your interest and no obligation to book when we contact you.
We'll explain the course details, dates, pricing and booking arrangements before you decide whether to proceed.
If the proposed date doesn't work for you, just let us know.
We can keep your interest registered, with your agreement, for future opportunities.
It's a straightforward service designed to take some of the hassle out of finding professional training.
You Asked for More Flexibility. We Listened.
At The Security Tutor, we're continually looking at ways to improve the learner experience.
You've told us that finding convenient course dates can be frustrating.
You've told us that working shifts makes attending weekday courses difficult.
And you've told us that sometimes the training you need simply isn't available when you need it.
Save Me a Place is another way we're responding to that feedback.
Alongside our commitment to transparent pricing, experienced instructors, flexible course delivery and practical learner support, we're working to make professional training more accessible to the people who need it.
Because we believe a good training provider should do more than advertise courses and wait for bookings.
It should listen to its learners, understand the barriers they face and look for practical ways to remove them.
